In this 2 minute video tip, check out how to use After Effects’ Leave Color effect to create the look where you footage is made black and white, leaving only a single color, made popular by the film Pleasantville.
Check out the new super-short, punchy business series by my brother Robin over on businessofpassion.com
MILG 6 and 7 host Tim Clapham recently completed a beautiful animation for 3D World magazine, created using Cinema4D and Adobe After Effects. The even cooler news is Tim recorded a tutorial.
Prologue has posted a teaser for The Pacific, the sequel to the stunning Band of Brothers miniseries. My friend and ex-Foxtel colleague Clarissa Donlevy headed up Concept, Design and Direction. A beautiful piece of work indeed.

FCP has no such effect natively. You can try this though: Duplicate the layer, remove color from lower layer, on top layer apply chroma key and choose the color your want to keep, then invert the selection.

Hi John,
This is a great tip, little things like this are really appreciated. Its great to learn some new things whilst waiting on renders.
Elijah’s music is also very pleasant on the ears he is a great composer for your dynamic visuals. You two make a great team.

Nice TIP JD, Funny you posted it, as I was just watching Grant Swansons “Creating The Sin City Effects” over at Creative Cow

His tutorial takes a longer rout than your GREAT TIP, but you get the job done either way.
Thanks JD
